Just a bad mix. Couldn't tell what the **** was going on musically.

Oh, and the song Beautiful Pain, along with being a pretty good song already, has an Australian influence to it, so there's that.

The whole deluxe album has leaked obviously, I haven't listened to the whole thing but so far it's pretty good, and I think it is an album that will grow on you. Probably not an epic lp but a way better effort by him in a long long time.
I think he's at least on track to getting his personal life on track without so much drama and for a while he seemed to be really unstable, and some sort of delusional paranoia that any time he was in public he was really messed up in the head. Probably a mixture of celebrity, substance abuse and any criticism while being in the spotlight and under constant scrutiny and his every move reported on did a number on him and was a total mind****.

He mentions on 1 of his new songs being born in Missouri (right outside KC) before moving to Michigan, but also he and his mom moved between Michigan and Missouri like 4 or 5 times growing up- didn't know that.
Also, not my favorite beat, but in terms of delivery and lyrics Rap God is ****ing impressive. Really amazing to deliver it without it coming out sounding like Shannon Sharpe tripping over his mouf. "Rap God" (Click for lyrics)
Spoiler!

Also pretty impressive live. Especially the part towards the end where he does a whole verse in like 10 seconds. |
